----------------------------------------

             Summary: Only consider a bind as successful when the server 
returns SUCCESS
                 Key: DIRAPI-494
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-494
             Project: Directory Client API
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.8
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lécharny
             Fix For: 2.1.9


The _void bind()_ helpers used _ResultCodeEnum.processResponse()_ to check the
bind result, which does not throw for *REFERRAL*, *SASL_BIND_IN_PROGRESS*,
*PARTIAL_RESULTS*, *CANCELED* or *COMPARE_TRUE/FALSE*. 
A server that does not hold the bind *DN* may answer a simple bind with a 
referral without checking the credentials, so an application authenticating 
users with
_try \{ connection.bind( dn, password ); ... \}_ accepted any password for
such a *DN*, although the connection was not authenticated.
